Hey everyone! I'm Vessy, founder of Vessy.com and author of the "2019 Diversity in the Workplace Report". I'd absolutely love to hear your feedback!
The report doesn't answer all D&I questions. So feel free to comment here if you have a question and you can't find an answer to it in the report!
@niklaspivic666 hey Nikolas!
I have interviewed
- A) people from the following for-profit organizations: ThoughtWorks, Atlassian, Hotjar, TransferWise, Zoona, RTE, Techstars, Swedbank, Software Group, Marvel, Hubble, LimeChain, HireSpace, myAccessHub, Victoria147, Costanoa Ventures, Draper Esprit;
- B) representatives from non-for-profits such as Travis Foundation, Inclusion Ireland, Diversity VC.
I'm not sure what you mean by "politically bound". As far as I'm aware those companies are not tied to any political party or political agenda.
Just stunning.
This report is incredibly well executed. Love the richness of the interviews.
What were some of the biggest challenges in putting this report together?
@koomerang1 when I came up with the idea of the report, I wanted to showcase stories and companies from countries that are very different, not just a mix of European and North American companies that could be somewhat similar. I did interview people and companies from Mexico, India, Australia, and South Africa. It was very hard to find a company comfortable to share on D&I in Asia (due to a recent PR crisis as one company in Malaysia supported LGBTQ rights and many users deinstalled their app) and in South America (due to mostly a language barrier as I found interesting companies and I was getting introed to them, but the conversation didn’t pick up).
@uffou thank you, Vasil! It took exactly 3 months from idea to launch. I reached out to approximately 100 individuals and got to talk to 22 of them to show the state of D&I in the 10 companies from 10 countries featured in the report. 17 of those were in-depth phone interviews and there were a few that were done over the email.
